Control your Sunne lamp from your phone! By connecting your Sunne to the app, you’ll be able to see how much energy Sunne is harvesting and the light's battery level. You’ll also be able to use the app to change the light settings (sunne rise, sunne light or sunne set) or dim the light. Sunne is an award-winning solar light designed by Marjan van Aubel that brings the future of solar energy into your home. It is a self-powered design piece, capturing, storing and producing the beauty of light indoors. The sun is an unlimited free source of energy and is key to fighting our climate crisis. By embedding solar technology into our everyday lives, we can accelerate the transition to a solar-powered future. This lamp was named by The New York Times as a Design Classic of the Future, and it is, amongst others, part of the permanent collections of Vitra Design Museum and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
